“I’ve been considering it for a few years and have been putting a lot of effort into safeguarding Hall & Oates’ and my own intellectual property. It’s not simple. There will be many obstacles in the way, but it’s crucial to achieve it, and I know that,” he remarked.
The musician also applauded the Tennessee law known as the ELVIS Act, which was recently passed to protect vocalists’ likenesses.
